EXHIBIT IIBII
GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Right to Proceed. Within the plat or land to be
platted, the Developer may not grade or otherwise disturb the

has been fully executed by both parties and filed with the City
Clerk, 2) the necessary security and fees have been received by the
City, 3) the plat has been recorded with the County Recorder's
Office of the County where the plat is located, and 4) the City
Engineer has issued a letter that the foregoing conditions have
been satisfied and then the Developer may proceed.
2. Phased Development. If the plat is a phase of a multi-
phased preliminary plat, the City may refuse to approve final plats
of subsequent phases if the Developer has breached this Contract
and the breach has not been remedied. Development of subsequent
phases may not proceed until Development Contracts for such phases
are approved by the City.
3. Effect of Subdivision Approval. For two (2) years from
the date of this Contract, no amendments to the City 's
Comprehensive Plan, except an amendment placing the plat in the
current urban service area, or official controls shall apply to or
affect the use, development density, lot size, lot layout or
dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or
federal law or agreed to in writing by the City and the Developer.
Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the
contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law the City may
require compliance with any amendments to the City's Comprehensive
Plan, official controls, platting or dedication requirements
enacted after the date of this Contract.
4. Improvements. The improvements specified in the Special
Provisions of this Contract shall be installed in accordance with
City standards, ordinances, and plans and specifications which have
been prepared and signed by a competent registered professional
engineer furnished to the City and approved by the City Engineer.
The Developer shall obtain all necessary permits from the
Metropolitan Council Environmental Services and other pertinent
agencies before proceeding with construction. The City will, at
the Developer'S expense, have one or more construction inspectors
GC-l
and a soil engineer inspect the work on a full or part-time basis.
The Developer shall also provide a qualified inspector to perform
site inspections on a daily basis. Inspector qualifications shall
be submitted in writing to the City Engineer. The Developer shall
instruct its project engineer/inspector to respond to questions
from the City Inspector(s) and to make periodic site visits to
satisfy that the construction is being performed to an acceptable
level of quality in accordance with the engineer I s design. The
Developer or his engineer shall schedule a preconstruct ion meeting
at a mutually agreeable time at the City Council chambers with all
parties concerned, including the City staff, to review the program
for the construction work. Within sixty (60) days after the
completion of the utility improvements and base course pavement and
before the security is released, the Developer shall supply the
City with the following: (1) a complete set of reproducible Mylar
as-built plans, (2) one complete full-size set5 of blue line
as-built plans and two sets of reduced 11"x17" as-built plans, (3)
two complete sets of utility tie sheets, (4) location of buried
fabric used for soil stabilization, (5) location stationing and
swing ties of all utility stubs including draintile cleanouts, and

7. Site Erosion Control. Before the site is rough graded,
and before any utility construction is commenced or building
permits are issued, the erosion control plan, Plan B, shall be
implemented, inspected, and approved by the City. The City may
impose additional erosion control requirements if they would be
beneficial. All areas disturbed by the excavation and backfilling
operations shall be reseeded forthwith after the completion of the
work in that area. Except as otherwise provided in the erosion
control plan, seed shall be certified seed to provide a temporary
ground cover as rapidly as possible. All seeded areas shall be
fertilized, mulched, and disc anchored as necessary for seed
retention. The parties recognize that time is of the essence in
controlling erosion. If the Developer does not comply with the
erosion control plan and schedule of supplementary instructions
received from the City, the City may take such action as it deems
appropriate to control erosion at the Developer I s expense. The
City will endeavor to notify the Developer in advance of any
GC-2
proposed action, but failure of the City to do so will not affect
the Developer's and City's rights or obligations hereunder. No
development will be allowed and no building permits will be issued
unless the plat is in full compliance with the erosion control
requirements. Erosion control needs to be maintained until
vegetative cover has been restored, even if construction has been
completed and accepted. After the site has been stabilized to
where, in the opinion of the City, there is no longer a need for
erosion control, the City will authorize the removal of the erosion
control, i.e. hay bales and silt fence. The Developer shall remove
and dispose of the erosion control measures.
7a. Erosion Control During Construction of a Dwelling or
Other Building. Before a building permit is issued for
construction of a dwelling or other building on a lot, a $500.00
cash escrow or letter of credit per lot shall also be furnished the
City to guarantee compliance with City Code ~ 20-94.
8. Clean up. The Developer shall maintain a neat and
orderly work site and shall daily clean, on and off site, dirt and
debris, including blowables, from streets and the surrounding area
that has resulted from construction work by the Developer, its
agents or assigns.
9. Acceptance and Ownership of Improvements. Upon
completion and acceptance by the City of the work and construction
required by this Contract, the improvements lying within public
easements shall become City property. After completion of the
improvements, a representative of the contractor, and a
representative of the Developer's engineer will make a final
inspection of the work with the City Engineer. Before the City
accepts the improvements, the City Engineer shall be satisfied that
all work is satisfactorily completed in accordance with the
approved plans and specifications and the Developer and his
engineer shall submit a written statement to the City Engineer
certifying that the project has been completed in accordance with
the approved plans and specifications. The appropriate contractor
waivers shall also be provided. Final acceptance of the public
improvements shall be by City Council resolution.
10. Claims. In the event that the City receives claims from
laborers, materialmen, or others that work required by this
Contract has been performed, the sums due them have not been paid,
and the laborers, materialmen, or others are seeking paYment out of
the financial guarantees posted with the City, and if the claims
are not resolved at least ninety (90) days before the security
required by this Contract will expire, the Developer hereby
authorizes the City to commence an Interpleader action pursuant to
Rule 22, Minnesota Rules of Civil Procedure for the District
Courts, to draw upon the letters of credit in an amount up to 125%
GC-3
of the claim(s) and deposit the funds in compliance with the Rule,
and upon such deposit, the Developer shall release, discharge, and
dismiss the City from any further proceedings as it pertains to the
letters of credit deposited with the District Court, except that
the Court shall retain jurisdiction to determine attorneys' fees.
11. Park and Trail Dedication. At the time of issuance of
building permits for construction, the Developer, its successors or
asslgns, shall pay to the City the park and trail dedication fees
then in force pursuant to Chanhassen City Ordinances and City
Council resolutions. One-third (1/3) of the park and trail cash
contribution shall be paid contemporaneously with the City's
approval of the subdivision. The balance, calculated as follows,
shall be paid at the time building permits are issued: rate in
effect when a building permit is issued minus the amount previously
paid. Only six of the eight lots will be subject to these fees.
Lots 1 and 3, Block 2 had existing structures and therefore are
exempt from Park and Trail fees.
12. Landscaping.
accordance with Plan D.
Landscaping
shall
be
installed
ln
Trees which can cause a public nuisance, such as cotton producing
trees, or can be a public hazard, such as bug infestation or weak
bark, are prohibited. The minimum tree size shall be two and
one-half (2~) inches caliper, either bare root in season, or balled
and bur lapped. The trees may not be planted in the boulevard (area
between curb and property line). In addition to any sod required
as a part of the erosion control plan, Plan B, the Developer or lot
purchaser shall sod the boulevard area and all drainage ways on
each lot utilizing a minimum of four (4) inches of topsoil as a
base. Seed or sod shall also be placed on all disturbed areas of
the lot. If these improvements are not in place at the time a
certificate of occupancy is requested, a financial guarantee of
$750.00 in the form of cash or letter of credit shall be provided
to the City. These conditions must then be complied with within two
(2) months after the certificate of occupancy issued, except that
if the certificate of occupancy is issued between October 1 through
May 1 these conditions must be complied with by the following July
1st. Upon expiration of the time period, inspections will be
conducted by City staff to verify satisfactory completion of all
conditions. City staff will conduct inspections of incomplete
items with a $50.00 inspection fee deducted from the escrow fund
for each inspection. After satisfactory inspection, the financial
guarantee shall be returned. If the requirements are not
satisfied, the City may use the security to satisfy the
requirements. The City may also use the escrowed funds for
maintenance of erosion control pursuant to City Code Section 20-94
or to satisfy any other requirements of this Contract or of City
ordinances. These requirements supplement, but do not replace,
GC-4
specific landscaping conditions that may have been required by the
